Carthage Sans LKE is an expanded version of my Carthage Sans font, which in itself is a reimagining of Apple's Espy Sans 12 bitmap font. It aims to cover as much as possible of the Latin, Cyrillic, and Greek blocks of the Unicode standard (thus the initials -- "Latina, Kirilitsa, Elleniki"). I'm open to expanding it to any of the other scripts Unicode covers, but I have little to no personal experience with most other alphabets; if you'd like to contribute, I'd particularly be interested in Arabic, Devanagari, Katakana, Hiragana, Armenian, and Hangul. (I would like to add Hebrew as well, but it's hard to get the diacritics right in what's essentially a pixel font. We'll see.) The current status as of 10/28/2015 (the date of initial publication):
-Latin: all of Latin-1, Latin Extended-A, and "Even More Latin"; Latin Extended-B is missing some characters that seem to be mostly either phonetic notation or obsolete.
-Greek: All Greek characters supported by FontStruct. If you need some of the ancient dialect characters like Pamphylian digamma, they're now in the GitHub version; polytonic will appear there as well, if anyone asks for it. Basic Coptic support is there, although I tried to fit it into the Espy Sans aesthetic rather than trying to duplicate the Byzantine-Egyptian traditional style.
-Cyrillic: Still a work in progress, but all Slavic languages using Cyrillic characters should be covered. The main holdup is Abkhazian, which is spoken by just over 110,000 people in the world and also has one of the longest alphabets in the world; I have no idea how many of them would be interested in this, so it hasn't been a huge priority. (Besides, the PT family from Russia's Paratype is excellent and far better than I could do with most Cyrillized languages.) I've emphasized support for several languages, the most important being Vietnamese (75 million speakers deserve some support no matter how tedious it is to do so).
I've also added characters for Old Irish, Old Church Slavonic, and Icelandic. There's a number of characters used in pan-African linguistics I am not sure if I need or not; they'll get filled in eventually alongside the Cyrillic, but how fast I have no idea.

I am deeply indebted to Keith Martin (@thatkeith on Twitter), formerly of the UK MacUser magazine, and his Espy Sans Revived project for a reference for the original letter bitmaps; Carthage is entirely my work but it's hard to find Espy Sans specimens in the wild, and his work is probably the best.
This is a clone of Carthage SansThe definitive retro gaming font, now available to use for your gaming-related projects, without a single arcade quarter required, is here! Why stick with Press Start 2P when you can use this, especially the fact that this font has over 1000 characters? This font was originally inspired by nostalgic arcade games, such as Bubble Bobble, Donkey Kong, Mario Bros., Frogger, Wonder Boy, Kung-Fu Master, Punch-Out!!, Karate Champ, Burger Time, Centipede, Track & Field, Bomb Jack, and many more!
This is a clone of Super Mario Bros. NES(Credit to Paradigm The Great for the original typeface.)
This is the second font I've made so far and currently my "dream font", if such a thing like that exists.
I've never seen a typeface with a capital R, S, and number 4 like this one, as the only one I've come across by the beginning of August 2023 would be "Videotape", however even that would be misaligned and wonky. This font is the sequel to my first font, "Tracking Knobs", but with more glyphs and lowercase letters.
This is a clone of CHARGEN '92Recreaction of the in-game font from Koei's strategy games Nobunaga's Ambition and Romance of the Three Kingdoms. This includes a basic (but slightly incomplete) set of hiragana and katakana glypns. Aside from my usual inclusion of smart quotes and inverted ! and ?, this is a straight glyph dump.
This is my recreation of the Arial font in pixel form as used for on-screen program guides for Dish Network in the United States and Bell Satellite TV (formerly Bell ExpressVu) in Canada during the 1990s and 2000s, albeit with some modifications...

*This font will be updated occasionally with more characters added... As such, for now, this is NOT a complete set...
A fairly obscure video game font for you, this being the serifed font from thte 'Puyo Puyo' series of video games (if that name sounds unfamiliar, these games were reskinned in North American and released as 'Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine' and 'Kirby's Avalanche'.)
The base alphabet, numbers, and several punctuation are all authentic to the game (the inverted ? and ! are always easy to make, which is why I always include them, even if not a part of the game proper). However, there's plenty of custom glyph work here with the punctuation and the accented lettering.
Enjoy!
Based on the lettering used for the original London Underground Jubilee line Extension station Passenger Information System.
Based on the lettering used on the London Underground Northern Line 1995 Stock Passenger Information System.
Based on the lettering used for London Underground Jubilee Line 1996 stock PIS (Passsenger Information System) displays.
This is a clone of London Underground 1995 Stock PISThe base font from the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive game Beyond Oasis (AKA The Story of Thor). It's another straight glyph dump with my usual additions of smart quotes and inverted ? and ! symbols; an @ sign (not found in the actual game) has also been added based on the game's copyright symbol.
Enjoy!
A typeface inspired by synthwave music and the art that represents it. The late 1980's and early 1990's landscape is full of amazing creativity that would be great to build off of.
I tried to capture the unique structure the music has to its sound, which is where the block shapes come in. To compliment the music's unpredicability, I made up all the block letterforms out of a "scan-line-esque" pattern.
Based on lettering used for LCD information displays in the 1980s and 1990s.
OK, so I started this back in 2008 (then called "test1") with 4 letters, then forgot this site existed until tonight in 2023. I worked on it some more for a couple of hours and here it is. Missing a few glyphs but I will save those for a later improvement. :) Very beginner-y, because I was just playing around when I started it. But I kind of like it. It's quite readable at tiny sizes and makes me think of some old 1990s Wired Magazine fonts or early blog fonts.
Presenting Tierheit and Sunsoft's Pescatore (Prototype), released in 1991.

Rip-off of Taitoid.
Presenting Gladasya-ua TV, Turner Entertainment Co. and Bandai's The adventures of Gilligan's Island (from cartoons, aka. The adventures of Gilligan, released in the 1960s sitcom of the same name, and this game was released in 1989 or 1990. This was based on cartoons, this font was similar to Taitoid, Super Mario Bros and Babel No Tou. This game is based on movies.
Presenting Capcom's Mega Man 3 (aka. Rockman 3: Dr. Wily no Saigo?!), released in 1990. This font is not similar to Mega Man 3+4, but it is similar. This was based on Mega Man Series.
